She tucked some strands of her hair behind her ear and heaved a deep breath. She's anxious. Krysie didn't got the chance to ask Carson this noon about Ivan's sudden disappearance. She's curious. So much."Is this all, Ma'am?" the cashier asked her with a wide smile.She nodded her head and brushed her fingers through her hair. "Yes."She's in the mall all by herself to buy Carson a gift. Seriously, she doesn't know what to give him and so she passed to this jewelry store and asked if they make personalized necklaces or rings and gladly they said yes. So here she is, buying a personalized bracelet for Carson engraved with his name. It has a gold tag with a leather strap. She likes it, hoping Carson would.She whistled while patiently waiting for the engraving to be done. She still needs to return to school or else Carson will start questioning her again."Don't you want it for couples? It would be good if you wear the same personalized bracelet," suggested by the saleslady who assisted
Someone knocked on her door, probably it's the maid asking if she's already settled. Well, today is the day they'll fly to Indonesia for two things. Vacation and birthday celebration. Her mother and stepfather didn't make it last night so they'll go directly to Bali after their work.She tried convincing her mother last night that she won't come but end up packing her things because Carson went here in her room and persuaded her using his puppy blue eyes. Damn that man. He looks cute and hot at the same time!It's been four days since she and Hunter got encountered. Elias didn't bother talking to her or approaching her. She's just like air to the two. Invisible and hard to see making her think twice whether to give the bracelets she bought for them or nah."Miss Sey, Young Master Carson said you need to go down," said the maid who was knocking.She rubbed her temple. "Yeah, just a moment."She's still sleepy. She wants to sleep and badly wants to sleep. But according to Carson, our fl
She's silently listening to the wind coming from her opened window, whispering through her ear and making her feel at ease. It's already ten in the evening. Everyone's asleep, maybe they're tired because of the long journey. She's tired, too. But something's keeping her awake this night.Her eyes darted into her ankle. The anklet is still nowhere to be found. Maybe it's already gone for good now. That's sad. She'd been keeping that anklet for two years and it was gone now. How stupid she is.Her hand reached for her chest and balled it into a fist. She shut her eyes close and heaved a deep breath. It's hard to deny but she missed him. There's a part of her that wants to see him but there's also a part of her that's afraid of that day to happen."I just need milk," she murmured to herself before going out of her room.The house is silent. The dim lights coming from the lamp in the living room are the only source of light. This is the first time that she has traveled away from New York.
"Are you sure you won't come?" she asked Carson while shaking his shoulders.He hummed and pulled her arm. A squeal escape from her mouth the moment she landed on his body. He wrapped his arms around her and buried his face at the crook of her neck. "Can we leave it for tomorrow? I'm still sleepy."She reached for his cheeks and gently tapped his cheeks. "How dare you leave it for tomorrow when I woke up early just for this?""Let's sleep," he mumbled against her neck.She shook her head. Looks like she can't force him anymore. From the looks of him, he looks so sleepy and exhausted. Maybe because of the long drive. And here she is, very excited to see Mount Batur and witness the beautiful sunrise.She pulled off his arms that were wrapped around her waist and carefully moved away from his body. She lifted the comforter up to his neck to cover his body from cold. Her hands caressed his cheeks first before deciding to proceed outside his room."Where is he?" Elias asked the moment she
"Hush now," he whispered and hugged her tightly.For a moment, she felt safe. Her heart feels warm in her stepbrother's arms. His embrace is like telling her she's fine. The tourists together with them are eyeing them in confusion. Of course. She's supposed to be happy while witnessing the sun rise above the clouds, but no. Her heart is tightening with the fucking hurtful memories."I-I'm sorry..." she muttered and nuzzled on his neck. "I'm sorry I broke down in front of you."Elias just hugged her tight. She continues crying on his neck until she starting sobbing. She can't understand why she's so comfortable crying when Elias is around.After a while, she asked Elias to go home. She wanted to rest now. What she witnessed in the sky is enough for her to go home. At least in her lifetime, she was able to visit this beautiful place. She's not sure anymore if she'll come back here."Brat..." He held her wrist making her halt. She turned to look at him and found how serious his face is.
"No." She shook her head in disapproval and smiled. "I promised Tito that I'll come with you."Carson stared at her as if thinking deeply about whether to agree on letting her come with him or nah. She fell asleep on the couch this morning after their breakfast and woke up in her room. Whoever carried her, she's thankful. She thought she'll wake up with back pain."You need to rest, Sey. I'll go with Elias." He smiled at her making her roll her eyes."I want to visit the places here, Carson." She went to him and hugged his waist, looking up at him. "Please?"Carson let out a groan of frustration. It's as if complaining but definitely submitting. She can't help herself but smile and pinched his cheeks. He's cute, and handsome at the same time."Okay, okay. Change your clothes now. I'll be waiting for you outside," he said and kissed her forehead.She nodded and went straight to where her room is. She locked the door and took off her shirt without bothering to go inside the bathroom. He
Later that afternoon, Krysie stayed in her room and having a deep thought. For the nth time, she let Hunter kiss her and manipulate her just like he always does. She can't find the proper reason for letting him kiss her.She pulled her hair frustratedly and huffed. Her stares darted into the black box that contained the gift she bought for Carson and the siblings. She forgot to give Elias the bracelet this morning so she'll give this on Carson's birthday.Her phone from the nightstand vibrated. She immediately reaches for it and answers the call after seeing Saki's name as the caller ID. She wondered how did she able to contact her when she's far away from NYC?"Hey, Saki! You called?" she asked happily. Look how she changed her mood in an instant."I just called to ask you if you made an Instagram account? I saw your recent post," she replied. "And oh, I missed you! I wanted to bond with you but I'm in Japan at the moment."Her forehead creased. "Instagram? I don't remember I created
She pursed her lips and rubbed her palms together. She's wearing a maroon two-piece that her mom bought for her. It's a strapless bra. The color of these clothes lifted her skin tone. Her breast is showing off. Good thing her mom noticed the size of her breast.Her monologue was disturbed by her mother's knock. "Does it fit you? Come out now."Her fingers carefully scratched her eyebrow as she stared at her reflection in the mirror. She has curves, all right. Her waist size is twenty-four and she has a round butt. And she can't fucking understand why the hell she can't find her confidence. This is very frustrating!"Y-Yes, Mom. Just a moment," she replied.Her Mother tied her hair in a fishtail. Some of her stray hairs fell upon the side of her face, she looks cute. Well, that's self-love. Grr.After staring at herself, she finally had the courage to open the bathroom door to show herself to her mom who's excitedly waiting for her to come out."Uhm..." Krysie cleared her throat. "H-Ho
SPECIAL CHAPTER IKrysie groaned for the nth time. Her tummy is heavy and she can't freaking bent down to wear her foot socks. She can't ask for someone to do it for her either because no one's here aside from her. Instead of leaning in further, she rested her back on the couch and bit her lower lip. She then caressed her tummy.“Damn, baby. Mommy's having a hard time,” she mumbled while caressing her tummy.She's already six months pregnant. Unlike her first pregnancy, the doctor says she's only carrying one baby. After their marriage that happened abroad, the siblings changed the triplets' last name and made it Adamson. It's good to know the triplets agreed about it.Hunter is out for a business meeting while Elias is in the hospital. Carson? Well, he's downstairs and making her something to eat. Gladly, they can cook now. They don't have to eat pizza for dinner.The door of the room slammed open and Havoc went in. Krysie smiled and watched her son walk toward her. The older Havoc i
Finale"Could you please, calm the fuck down?" Margaux said to Hunter. Krysie just shook her head. They're in the hospital owned by Elias, waiting for the DNA test result. Hunter keeps pacing back and forth while ruffling his hair. It's been two months since that emotional break she had with Noah. And to be honest, she both feels bad and relieved. Relived that finally, she can express herself freely without worrying that something was stopping her.Kaizer and Margaux visited last month and her brother immediately left for another important hearing while Margaux stayed to visit her parents today. Margaux's still clueless that Maddie is already in their home. Speaking of Maddie, Krysie can see the sincerity in her eyes the moment she thanked her for being good. To sum up everything, everything is good now. Everything's settled and her mom didn't oppose her relationship with the siblings. "Hunter," she called. He looked at her and she smiled. "Calm down." Hunter nodded and stood bes
Want 84“Noah…” She stilled.He turned to her and she saw how tired his eyes is. It was reddish. Krysie can perfectly see the dark circles under his eyes. He looks…restless.“Krysie!” he exclaimed and walked past Elias to hug her. She can't process everything. She can't think. All she knows is Noah hugging her so tightly as if he's afraid to let go. Elias was about to pull him away but she raised her hand, telling him to stop. “I miss you,” he uttered and started sobbing. Noah kissed her hair as he tightened his embrace. “Please, come back to me.” She's speechless. She's grasping for words and it seems like the words are escaping her. Her mind's chaotic at the moment. He pulled away from their hug and he held her shoulders. “Why are you with them, did they blackmail you?” “Knight,” Elias warned. Krysie bit her lower lip hard. She looked at Elias. “You'll go ahead, Elias. Bring my babies home safe.” Noah looked at her. “What—”“I'll stay.” They turned to Hunter when he suddenly
“Untie her!” she exclaimed while looking at Maddison who is now helplessly lying on the floor.Hunter immediately obeyed her. He unbuckles the shackles on Maddie's wrist and ankle. Krysie can't help to rake a stare all over Maddie. She looks so thin. Her bones are damn visible! So all this time, they are caging Maddison inside this scary basement or dungeon? Oh goodness.She immediately attended to Maddie and helped her to sit. Krysie took off her blazer and wrapped it around Maddie's shoulders. She looked at Hunter with a teary eye.“Carry her outside, please? She can't stay here longer,” she softly asked. Hunter clenched his jaw and nodded his head and walked towards Maddie. He carefully scooped the woman in his arms and headed out of the place. Krysie is rooted in her place. Her eyes are roaming all over the dim room. “Why did you guys put her here?” She turned to Carson and Elias and glared at them. “Are you freaking out of your mind?!”Elias tried to reach for her arms but she
Want 82“Do you want anything else?” Her mother asked for the nth time. She can sense her mom's panicking as she keeps on glancing in her baby's direction. The siblings were inside the library, maybe they'll talk about something inside and she's left here with her babies and mother. “Mommy,” she called. “Can you sit for a moment? Uhm, calm down?” Millet released a frustrated breath and sat on the single couch. Havoc, Haven, and Hades are silently sitting on the couch and behaving themselves. “Krysie, am I dreaming? You left when you're eighteen and…” Her mom dramatically covered her mouth using her own hand. “You just came home with…” She heaved a deep breath. Krysie asked the nannies to take care of her babies and asked her mom to come with her to the pool area. She doesn't want her babies to hear their conversation. They might misinterpret everything.“Explain to me, Sweetie. How? How did it happen? Why…why do that kids look like Hunter?” Her mom attacked her with questions aft
“Okay,” Krysie nodded her head. “I…I'll settle things soon as fast I can. I'm sorry…”“You know what, it's good to hear you're finally settling everything. I don't hate you, I just can't tolerate you cheating on Noah. He loves you dearly, Krysie. I know you're aware of that.” Margaux heaved a deep breath. “And I'm sorry for provoking you last day. I thought you broke up with him.”“We had just cooled off,” Krysie responded.“That's what I'm guilty of. That's why I'm here to advise you to finally settle your feelings about who's who. I was so guilty knowing you guys didn't break up. And here I am, provoking you to come back with the siblings. I just know that when Noah called me last night.” Margaux reached for her hand and squeezed. “It was my fault for convincing you not—”“It's fine. I didn't blame you. It's all on me. I let myself succumb to the temptation brought by them and didn't think who will suffer because of my wrongdoings.” Krysie looked at her friend and smiled. “Thank you
Want 80Krysie woke up, purring like a kitten. She slowly opened her eyes and a dim room welcomed her view. She roamed her eyes all over the place and found out she was alone. She looked at the side of the bed and pouted. It's already eight in the morning and nobody cares to wake her up? She pulled herself up and moved her legs when she suddenly felt a pang of pain in between her thighs. She groaned dropped her body into the soft bed once again. The images from last night flashed inside her head. Margaux will scold her and that's for sure. Then suddenly, her mind is thinking about Noah. Something in her felt so regretful for letting her body decide. She was blinded by lust that she totally forgot she was in a relationship with someone!“Oh, God. What have I done?” she asked herself. Instead of sulking and taking all the blame, she pulled herself up to take a shower. She'll deal with everything after finishing a shower. She needs water to freshen up her mind to think about what she

Please be guided.Want 79“Hey.” Krysie turned to look at Carson who had just gone out of the room where the triplets are sleeping. They agreed to stay the night. They enjoyed having fun with the triplets together. She smiled. “Are they asleep?” Carson nodded. Elias and Hunter are following behind him. “Aren't you going to sleep?” “I still don't know where I should sleep,” she muttered. Margaux went out of her room and handed her some nighties. She's not bringing anything for this night over isn't planned. That's why she has to ask some from Margaux so that she can sleep comfortably tonight.“Here,” Margaux said. “And there are only two rooms in this hotel. Krysie, you can sleep in mine. I'll be out tonight for a party and I'll be home at dawn. So please, don't lock the door. I'm sure they won't transfer into your room.” Oh, so she's out tonight? Margaux is
Want 78"You can stay here for a moment," she uttered. "I-I don't want to shock the kids."Hunter just nodded. "Can you walk there?""I can assist you," Carson volunteered.Krysie was hesitant but agreed anyway. Her foot is still healing and it will take her longer to walk without aid from someone.Carson assisted her to step out of the car. She turned to look at Elias and Hunter and both of them are smiling. It's as if telling her that she can do it and they're just right behind her back. And this is not getting good. She's starting to get afraid. It feels like restoring this old connection with them is not good."Are you good?" Carson asked while walking. He let her wrap her left arm on his right arm. "You're spacing out while we're walking."Krysie blinked her eyes only to find out he was right. She smiled tightly and gripped his arm. They continue walking inside the hotel where Margaux is staying. They headed straight to the elevator and waited for the door to open.While waiting,
